"TriStar Arms, an importer of sporting, hunting and self-defense pump, semi-auto and break-action shotguns, will be expanding their small offering of handguns with a full line of Canik pistols. They will be adding polymer, steel and alloy-framed pistols to their catalog, seven new models in 9mm and a few with .40 S&W variants."

Bought a C-100 at the end of December. Great gun! I have been on the look out for a full size CZ 75b or BD but the gun shops can't keep any 9mm's on the self. I went to Acadamy and couldn't believe my eyes there was a CZ 75 in the case! oN closer inspection it was the Tristar S-120. the gun handled just like the real thing. Weight and grip were awsome (a little thinner than the C-100). It was priced at $349! I paid $299 for the C-100 that is now priced at $349. I would have bought it but i really want a true CZ 75. If anyone is looking for a great deal on a great gun you shoot look at the S-120. I know i will be kicking my self later for not getting it but i always have my C-100.

That's interesting. At the last gun show, there was one dealer with a lot of TriStar, Canik, EAA and one or two CZ's, and that's all she had. I figured there was some connection between those brands (minus CZ).

If the prices were more reasonable at shows I might have gambled on a Canik or EAA (Tanfoglio).

I called Tristar today and spoke with a fella that was very nice and talkative, he is obviously proud of the quality in the Canik55 line. I asked if Academy Sports will be carrying any of the new models, he told me they will have the T100 in blue only and should bee in stores in approx. 4-5 weeks. He also said there is a good chance the warranty will be bumped up to 5 years. As far as parts go he said they have many parts in stock and mags. will be in next week. While talking about parts he said the slide stop in the C-100 is forged not cast and would be difficult to break. Just thought I'd pass this along.
